Finally, I was able to find some time to work on my dining room chairs. Last couple of weeks was very busy. I was juggling around 3-4 different projects. So, this week I decided to give myself a little break to focus only on upholstering the dining room chairs. I think the chairs with their …
Today is the day after Mother’s Day, and I cannot tell you how proud I am of my girls. I have always told them that I would appreciate handmade gifts more than anything for Mother’s Day. Seems like this year they really took it to heart. Both TEE and S secretively began working on their …
As a mom I am very particular about our dental health and make sure we visit our dentist for the regular dental maintenance. For a couple of years now my dentist has been recommending Tee who is currently eleven to get braces because of an overbite. In my opinion, she has the most perfect set …
“T” has been participating in a photography contest sponsored by our local library for few years now. This year my little one was officially eligible too, so she was excited to enter the contest.

Last summer my husband and I painted almost 8 areas (6 rooms, 1 hallway and 1 powder room) in our house. Working only during the evenings and weekends it took us about 5 weeks to finish those many rooms. We still have about 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to paint and we are going to …
NexMy little one “S” begged me to make this for her. She was so convincing that she prepared the list of ingredients for me when I went shopping for groceries. I have to say this recipe for Easter Egg Nests is fun and easy to make. It is also fun for kids as I could …
It is Spring break, that means the girls are at home the whole day for a whole week. To keep them entertained and away from iPad and iPhone, I thought it would be great to make something that is easy, quick and fun. As I was not in the mood to do any shopping, I …
My dresser is totally cluttered. The fact that I have girls makes my dresser that much more vulnerable. ‘S’ my little one uses all my nail polish as her toy characters and when she is done playing with them she tosses it over the dresser in a pile. ‘T’ my eleven year old has started …
As a true Southie (South Indian), I am a rice and curry kind of girl. So when I got an opportunity to write a sponsored post for Minute® Rice, I immediately jumped at it. I have cooked all kinds of rice; you name it and I have cooked them all. But, I never used Minute® Rice …
Does Beyonce really need these custom designed (by PMK) sneakers? Check out the picture and you will see at least five different living beings (stingray, ostrich, calf, crocodile and anaconda) gave up their life so that Beyonce can strut around in misguided luxury. It is not only Beyonce who is guilty of this fashion faux …
